Cloudron Forum

@robi No we didn't.

Thanks for all the feedback here. We discovered cloudron a whiles back and have been testing it out on a number of server over the last couple of months. We wanted to get a good handle on how everything works before rolling anything out into production. Firstly it’s a excellent platform and fills a great need. But we did run into a little problem with one of our test servers running on a digital ocean droplet. About 2 weeks ago it went from using 20gb of space to nearly 80gb in the space of 4 hours. We received an alart from digital ocean however things were happening so fast that all we could initially do is upgrade the instance, this gave us half and hour and then we had to do it again, then we just attached a 100gb volume. Although just in testing there was a wordpress app we were fond of and so we transferred it off the cloudron and left a pixelfed app. Somewhere between shutting down the server to add the volume and moving the Wordpress app, the space usage stopped increasing. I know what your thinking Wordpress right? No we checked the install before hand and it was working fine on another server. We then removed the 100gb volume and resized the digital ocean server back to its original size and evething was back to normal. I figured that some server updates ran that morning and some out of control process started this and resizing the server up and down somehow got rid of the problem.
